Counseling for Youth & Families

 There are times in our lives when we have to lean in for help and guidance. Just like learning to ride a bike, courage is required when we must risk learning new or different ways of coping.  We often face situations that may be unfamiliar and we need help navigating them.  I believe we all have the skills inside of us however, they may be buried or forgotten about due to the stresses of life and businesses of our lives here in Silicon Valley.  Maybe you don’t feel joy or peace anymore and long for connection with others and yourself. Just like you learned to ride a bike or play an instrument you can practice skills that will help you to manage your stress, anxiety or depression and have a more joy filled life again.  

Just like the spokes on a bike wheel I believe we need to attend to all areas of life.  Emotional health, physical health, spiritual health, relational.  If one spoke is broken the ride isn’t very smooth.  What spoke isn’t working well for you? Come in and let’s check it out so you can enjoy a smoother ride!
